Metabase

Hey everyone -

I’m the founder and CEO of Metabase and I’m here to shill our upcoming launch of our Embedding versions. 

Over the last 10 years, we at Metabase have been focused on offering an easy and Open Source way for anyone in your company to run reports, make charts, and just generally have access to your company’s data on their own. 

We’ve been used by over 70,000 companies and organizations of all sizes and shapes - from fortune 100 companies to local volleyball club. 

Analytics is a multi-player game, and while analysts, data scientists, and other practitioners of the dark arts are important players, we’ve always emphasized the need for a normal person with a day job to be able to get what they need on their own time. Increasingly, we’re finding that companies are using us to deliver data and analytics to their customers, not just their employees. We’ve been working to make that easier and faster to do, and are calling the result “Metabase Embedding”. 

Along the way, we’ve learned a lot by helping hundreds of companies embed analytics and reporting in their products. This often involves more than just a chart here or a dashboard there, but rather the ability for your customers to run their own reports on the data they generated in your application. 

Ask me anything about Metabase, creating an Open Source Business, why Github stars are a silly vanity Metric (and what you should be chasing instead), embedding reporting in your application, or data in general.
